even in the roughest times I like to give, so I donated two moc action figures for the boys and two baby dolls for the girls. I hope this helps. You're a good man Jay.

I completely agree with everything Jay said, price is a major factor in the number of backers, I wanted to back it but it's just way to over priced and after I saw the skystriker I knew I'd rather have that instead, but I wonder if the time of year has anything to do with the failure of all these haslab projects? IT'S the holiday seasons and people need every penny they have to celebrate their chosen holidays, and lets not even talk about supply problems, inflation, and the cost of Thanksgiving dinner, not just the dinner but also the cost to drive to your destination.
If you're like me you also collect several toy lines and there is just way to many haslab projects going on at once.

To me G.I. Joe reminds me of family, I remember one Christmas my grand mother who was struggling with her diabetes took me to the local roses store and told me to pick any Christmas gift I wanted and I remember the problems she had walking and the only way she could walk was with the help of the shopping cart and I remember going around the corner and there on the top shelf was the night raven, and I told my mama thats it, thats what I want for Christmas. Now my grandmother didn't have much money, she only had a few hundred dollars a month to live on from social security but she put that night raven and other G.I. Joes figures on lay a way for me and some how, some way she picked them up and I will never forget that Christmas morning my mama watching me open those presents and the smile she had on her face. That was the last Christmas I had with my mama and during her funeral I went with my mother to the local pharmacy and she let me pick out a comic to read and it was that months gi joe comic and in that comic was the night raven and I just broke down and cried, but I still have my night raven and nothing will ever get that plane from me.

I plan to cherry pick even more but did anyone see the price increase hasbro did on their G.I. Joe figures in Canada? They raised the prices of G.I. Joe to around 45.00 or 35.00 American.
